Summary

After the Grand Tour Broadcast frees the Racing Drivers, a former endurance driver brings his perspective to his new career in Formula E.Andre Lotter's Racing Driver half, Merlin, and Jean-Eric Vergne's Racing Driver half, JEV, form a team that is so unique a new word has to be coined.

Summary

“They seem happy.” Jev remarked, tapping at the picture on the backside.

“Yes, I think they are,” André thought back to how he could hear the smile in his mother's voice through the phone when she told him about the proposal, almost like she couldn’t believe happiness had found its way back to her.

“It makes you happy too,” Jean-Éric told him with a surprising sincerity in his voice that broke up André’s stream of thought and made him look back at him.

Summary

It occurs to Pierre, in a startling flash of brilliant hindsight Stoffel might not have actually been, strictly speaking, serious in his offer when he’d typed if you’re *that* lonely on Christmas Eve, I can probably keep you better company than that guy -- and followed it with a kissing emoji -- when Pierre had posted a picture of himself pouting in a ugly Christmas sweater trying to kiss his own reflection while holding up a sprig of mistletoe.

This is neither a Miami vacation, nor Pierre crashing at Stoff’s Monaco flat, nor the two of them tooling around at the RBR timeshare apartments in Milton Keynes.

Pierre finds himself hopelessly, awkwardly at a loss for an explanation, and gets out: “God no, I drove, I wasn’t that far away -- it was on my way, anyway,” which apart from being a total lie just feels wrong to say, Roeselare isn’t on Pierre’s way to fucking anywhere. The car he's parked in the driveway is a rental; Stoffel knows perfectly well Pierre owns an Evoque, although beyond just raising his eyebrows slightly, Stoff very kindly doesn’t call him out on his bullshit point-blank.

Summary

Top special agent Antonio Maria de Mello Breyner Felix da Costa is as skilled as they come - witty, sharp, and lethal, but as he pursues his most notorious targets through the roulette tables of Monaco, he cannot shake the feeling that he is missing something, or someone. However, his hopes may be closer to home than he initially conceives.

Summary

The only good thing about this horror is that if I die here, at least I’ll be staring at his sorry ass while doing so. The thought in him is sour and the sun above them is scorching and the road beneath and before them is long.

Summary

“Have you ever been with a man?” André says, leaning over to pick up his ochoko and take a casual sip.

“On occasion,” James says cautiously. This is a strange question for André to be asking, because he remembers with relative clarity kissing André at a particularly messy party in Saint Tropez a few years back, and he’s pretty sure André remembers it too. Still, he doesn’t mention it, unsure whether it’s something André wants Jev to know about.
